Call Me, Beep Me!
"Call Me, Beep Me!", or "The Kim Possible Song", is the theme song for the Disney Channel series ''Kim Possible''. The song was written by Cory Lerios and George Gabriel. In the song, Kim Possible (the main character of the series) tells listeners to "call" or "beep" her if "there's trouble", no "matter if it's day or night", and promises she will not fail them and will rush to help. Thus, it reflects the use of modern-day mobile technologies. The original version of the song, which played over the opening sequence of the 2002 series, was recorded by Christina Milian and is a catchy punchy Motown-flavored R&B number.
